The Winter Concert series at Walt Whitman High School never fails to bring the holiday spirit to our district community. Beginning in early December, the high school hosted our Stimson Middle School Orchestra, Chorus, and Band groups. Their festive ensembles and beautiful holiday sounds prepared us for an additional week of holiday spirit, as our high school musicians brought their talents to the stage, followed by Silas Wood’s sixth graders who performed in the Whitman PAC for the first time.
Thank you to each of our district musicians for bringing the sounds of the holidays to South Huntington for all to enjoy before winter recess!

Aces of the Air March ……………..By Karl L. King, arr. Swearingen
The Wizard of Oz ………………………..By Arlen/Harburg, arr. Barnes
The Inferno First Movement From The Divine Comedy …………….By Robert W. Smith
Like Dante's Inferno, the movement is divided into four sections. The opening melodic statement in the oboe represents the sins of "incontinence." As Dante finishes his relatively short journey through this section of "The Inferno," he is confronted with the Wall of Dis (the gate into Hell). Dante describes the hypocrites as they file endlessly ia a circle which the-composer represents in t/:Je slower, second section ···" of the piece. As Dante's journey continues, he hears the dreadful blast of bugle (trumpet solo). Dante and Virgil are lowered into the last section of Hell by giants who are constantly pelted with bolts of thunder. As their journey nears its end, they are confronted with the sight of Lucifer. Dante and Virgil climb down the flanks of Lucifer and exit to the other hemisphere, leaving the fiery world of "The Inferno" behind (percussion fade out at ending).
